DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The invention involves a type of seat, which has the advantages of simple machining procedure, high production efficiency and low production cost.
The technical scheme of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is clearly and completely described in the following combined with the accompanying drawings. This embodiment is just one of the many possible embodiments. Based on the preferred embodiment of the present invention, other embodiments will be understood by the ordinary technical personnel in the art, which can obtain the premise of the present invention without requiring creative labor.
Referring to FIGS. 1-4, in the depicted embodiment of the present invention, the seat includes a seat baseplate 1, a soft cushion, and an underframe assembly 2. The seat baseplate 1 provides the skeleton of the seat. The soft cushion is arranged on the seat baseplate 1. The seat baseplate 1 is connected to the frame 4 through the underframe assembly 2. The seat baseplate 1 in this embodiment is formed as an integrated unit by injection molding, The soft cushion is arranged on the seat baseplate 1 to form the complete seat. Compared with the machining method in the prior art wherein the backrest and the base are separately machined and then the backrest and the base are assembled with each other, the manufacturing procedure of the seat baseplate in the present invention is simple, and thus the production efficiency is improved and the production cost is reduced.
In order to ensure the breathability of the seat, an air hole can be arranged on the seat baseplate 1. The arrangement of the air hole also reduces the weight of the whole seat and therefore plays a role of reducing the load.
In the depicted embodiment of the invention, the soft cushion mentioned above is connected to the seat baseplate 1 by a screw connection. The screw connection ensures the fastness of connection between the soft cushion and the seat baseplate 1.
Further, in order to facilitate the installation of the soft cushion, the soft cushion is divided into a backrest cushion and a seat cushion 34 with the seat cushion 34 being a separate part. The backrest cushion is divided into a right backrest cushion 31, a middle backrest cushion 32 and a left backrest cushion 33 as separate parts. During installation, the four parts of the right backrest cushion 31, the middle backrest cushion 32, the left backrest cushion 33 and the seat cushion 34 are each connected at their corresponding positions on the seat baseplate 1 by screw connections respectively, such that the four parts collectively provide the complete cushion.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the backrest cushion (three parts) and seat cushion 34 are each made by a polyurethane (“PU”) self-skinning process, which uses the reaction of polyurethane two-component material to form the epidermis and core at one time. Compared with the traditional leather coating process, making the seat cushion 34 and backrest cushion by a PU self-skinning process provides strong wear resistance, crack resistance and elasticity. In addition, the manufacturing procedure of the PU self-skinning process is simpler than that of the traditional leather coating process and the manufacturing efficiency is high, and thus production efficiency is further improved.
In the depicted embodiment of the invention, the underframe assembly 2 includes a slide rail 23 and a slider 22. The slide rail 23 is connected to the frame 4. The slide rail 23 is tilted and one end of the slide rail 23 is higher than the other end. For example, the front end of the slide rail 23 is higher than the rear end. The slider 22 is arranged on the slide rail 23 and is fitted to the slide rail 23, and the slider 22 can be slid in the extension direction of the slide rail 23 on the slide rail 23. The seat baseplate 1 is arranged on the slider 22 and is connected to the slider 22, and the seat baseplate 1 can be slid in the extension direction of the slide rail 23 through sliding movement of the slider 22 on the slide rail 23. If the front end of the slide rail 23 is higher than the rear end, the seat will rise when the seat baseplate 1 is slid forward; the seat will be lowered when the seat baseplate 1 is slid backward. The underframe assembly 2 in the depicted embodiment allows the seat height to be adjusted to meet the different needs of the driver.
In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the underframe assembly 2 also includes bolts 24, each with a lock nut (not shown), and two gaskets 21. The bolts 24 are connected to the sliders 22. The gaskets 21 are located on the seat baseplate 1. During installation, the bolts 24 are passed through the seat baseplate 1 and the gaskets 21 in turn and then a lock nut is rotated and fixedly locked from the top of each bolt 24, such that the gaskets 21 and the seat baseplate 1 are fixedly locked onto the slider 22 by the lock nuts. The connection type between the seat baseplate 1 and the slider 22 provided by the preferred embodiment is removable yet firm.
In the depicted embodiment of the invention, the underframe assembly 2 also includes a clip tube 25 and a clip slot member 27. The clip tube 25 is connected to one end of the slide rail 23. The extension direction of the clip tube 25 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the slide rail 23. The clip slot member 27 is connected to the frame 4, and the clip slot member 27 is provided with the clip slot which adapts to the clip tube 25. The clip tube 25 is arranged into the clip slot, so one end of the slide rail 23 is connected to the frame 4.
Further, the preferred underframe assembly 2 also includes a clip hook 26 and corresponding clip member. The clip hook 26 is connected to the other end of the slide rail 23. The clip member is connected to the frame 4. The clip hook 26 can be hooked on the clip member to be connected to the frame 4. Thus, one end of the slide rail 23 is connected to the clip slot member 27 through the clip tube 25 and the other end of the slide rail 23 is hooked to the clip member through the clip hook 26 to realize the connection between the underframe assembly 2 and the frame 4. The connection type is easily operated and the connection is firm. The other end of the slide rail 23 is connected to a connector whose extension direction is parallel to the extension direction of the clip tube 25, and the clip hook 26 is arranged on the connector.
The slide rail 23 is tilted. One end of the slide rail 23 is connected to a support foot which is connected to the clip tube 25. One end of the slide rail 23 is supported by the support foot to cause the slide rail 23 to be inclined.
The structure of the slide rail 23 can adopt a groove structure. To achieve the groove structure, the upper ends of two lateral plates of the groove structure are bent outward to form an outer bending part. Also, the lower ends of the two lateral plates of the slider 22 are bent inward to form an inner bending part. The inner bending part of the slider 22 is mounted below the outer bending part of the slide rail 23, and the slider 22 can only be slid in the extension direction of the slide rail 23 in relation to the slide rail 23.
